With renewed hope of finishing one army in my lifetime I will start anew in 2010. With this blog I hope to bring together all the techniques and ideas found around the internet to create a unique Chaos Space Marine tabletop army. There will be some off-topic posts and projects but in the end it will all come together.

What Am I Doing?

Updated: 05/24/10On the Bench:I have finished assembling my Crimson Fist. Will be working on painting them now so I can have a decent looking army on the table instead of a rag-tag group of primed metal and plastic.

In the Paint Booth:The new Harder & Steenbeck Infinity 2-in-1 Airbrush and a Iwata Compressor has made short work of basecoating my Army. The coverage is SO SMOOTH, I love it. Now to work out my painting technique. I know what I want something to look like in my head, but application of that image eludes me sometimes.

Watching:Still watching YouTube Sculpting VideosI would love to learn more about sculpting with Green Stuff and Milliput so I have been watching videos and reading forum posts and articles to work my way into being a better sculptor.

OK, so some of you have seen my previous post on my "Disembarkation Templates" for my Eldar. This is just a spin off of that idea. I am working on my Chaos army and decided to go ahead and make some for my Rhinos. Since I haven't truly picked a Chapter (about 98% sure) there is no iconography on this template. I did borrow my buddies Black Legion squad to fill in for the photo shoot (for the promise of violence and blood shed they work cheap).

The picture above gives you a rough estimate of how I went about measuring for the template. It is really short and sweet with big benefits. That extra 1/4 inch you may short yourself may or may not make the difference, but why take the chance. Maximize your disembarkation and maul the unfortunates on the bad end of this good idea. Below I will post a couple pictures of rear and side exits to give a idea of how much room you have.

Thanks again for reading and hope you like the idea...looking forward to posting the Land Raider templates in the next few weeks.
